EVIDENCE OF RESEARCH LEADERSHIP AND RECOGNITION

Excerpts from grant-proposal reviews "Prof. Kunchur appears to be a very capable scientist with exceptional experimental skills. As noted, he has established himself as an acknowledged leader in pulsed studies of superconductors." "This is a scientific goldmine that has been relatively unexplored...The PI is uniquely qualified to perform these studies. Indeed, the PI has pioneered this field, and he might be the best researcher in the world capable of doing a thoughtful and deep analysis of what is happening in these extreme regimes. It is a very imaginative proposal, proposing to do very difficult experiments, that nobody else could do as well as the PI. He is the top expert in these type of important studies... not blindly following the bandwagon, but boldly going where few others are going. This requires courage, and not so many scientists are doing this." "The PI touches on a wide variety of effects... addresses an impressively broad spectrum of non--equilibrium physics...strengths of the proposal are the PI’s formidable expertise ... " "...this group is basically the only one in this country capable of performing such experiments...As with any bold exploratory work... surprises and unexpected discoveries are likely. The capable USC group led by the expert PI has an excellent track record of accomplishments under the prior DOE funding...The results have been published extensively and reported by the PI in several invited talks at international conferences...actively involving undergrads and minority students and participating in the APS sponsored outreach program." "...topics break new ground ...scientifically, it probes new extreme conditions which have not yet been explored."
